  • Comprehensive Secondary Schools in Australia 137
    136 Education Researchand Perspectives, Vol. 34, No.1, 2007 Comprehensive SecondarySchools in Australia: a View trom Newcastle, New South Wales AlanBarcan Conjoint Fellow, School ofEducation, University ofNewcastle, NSW Abstract The two most significant events in government secondary schools in Australia between the end ifthe Second World War in 1945 and the cultural revolution ifthe late 1960s and early 1970s were the vast expansion in enrolments and the curricular changes entailed, in part, by these. Between 1953 and 1964four ifthe six states introduced comprehensive high schools. In the ten years after 1974 the other two states folloioed suit. In all states the internal structure if comprehensive schools also changed. The examination system, the curriculum, and the provision for higher ability students all came under public scrutiny. This epoch closed with the reforms if 1989-93. Thereafter, comprehensive schools existed in name but lost their dominance and changed their characteryet agazn. The following analysis focuses particularly on New South Wales. After discussing the concept ifcomprehensive secondary schools, it surveys the long­ established system ifsecondaryschooling to which the early comprehensive high schools offered an alternative. Theirprogress in the six states between 1953 and 1984, is then examined. The cultural transformation ifthe late 1960s and early 1970s is seen as reshaping the context and nature ifcomprehensive schooling. The final section examines in some detail the comprehensive system as it operated in Newcastle, New South Wales, from 1953 onwards and the conversion in the 1970s ifthe specialisedsecondaryschools in the inner city into comprehensives. The study closes with a general survey ifthe reforms ifthe late 1980s and early 1990s which relegated comprehensive high schools to a relatively minorposition in New South Wales secondaryeducation.

  • Chapter One Introduction
    Metamorphosis Chapter One Introduction What has been formed is immediately transformed again, and if we would succeed, to some degree, to a living view of Nature, we must attempt to remain as active and plastic as the example she sets for us. (Goethe 1952:24) I am sitting at my studio table and have a green view out on to the backyard of the recently mown grassy area that falls away to rainforest trees and eventually to the banks of Mullumbimby Creek. It is the time of Kambar, the season that the Bundjalung recognise as bringing heavy rain. I check on the bush turkey that has been turning over the leaves to adjust the incubation temperature of the eggs. According to Gary Opit’s Seasonal Synopsis (see Appendix 10) the chicks are due to hatch shortly. The pressure is on to complete my thesis. It too needs to hatch. It has been eight years since commencing its formulation. What I have been working with has emerged and evolved out of the journey of my own life, both professionally and personally and not unlike the restless and unceasing activity of the Goethe’s archetypal plant, it has continued to grow and change. This thesis is presented as a set of layered stories. The research question around which this thesis is constructed is about a place, Shearwater the Mullumbimby Steiner School. It is also my story, a story about a journey, a songline of learning and doing and how through the meeting and exchange with others, intersects with the songlines of their lives.

It brings the index up to 2014 and includes additional cross referencing and detail on articles to enable more information to be located. PART 1 MERCHANT SHIPS PART 2 NAVAL VESSELS As in the previous issue this Index shows LOG dates only, page numbers are not indexed and readers will need to look through individual LOGS to find the articles. From 1954 to 2008 the Index reference is shown as month and year of publication. For example, reference 3:5/63,3/68 indicates items published in the March & May 1963 and March 1968 issues of THE LOG. Also 7-8/58 indicates an item in the July-August 1958 LOG. In 2009 the month of publication was replaced with the quarter in which THE LOG was issued (that is, numbers 1, 2, 3 and 4 each year) so that indexing from 2009 refers to the quarter and year. Thus 3/14 indicates items in the third issue of THE LOG for 2014. (Note :This is different to the system adopted for the Indexes of Fleets and Classes, Illustrations and Authors recently published for the first time, which show the cumulative LOG Issue Number (W1- W75 old series and 1-198 New Series) and page number for each item.) Many articles are indexed by ship name or other key word and many articles are indexed several ways to assist location.

    JOURNAL OF THE ROYAL VICTORIAN INSTITUTE OF ARCHITECTS Vol. XX XV Melbourne, November-December, 1937 No. 5 TRANSPORT This issue of the R.V.I.A. Journal, dealing as it does with two distinct types of travel, may well be christened a "Transport Issue." As well as illustrating and describing both terrestrial and marine travelling systems, those which it introduces to our members are both new creations. As the R.M.S. "Orcades," which was built by Messrs. Vickers Armstrong Ltd., in England, is the very latest of the Orient Steamships to be con- structed for the Australian trade, so the "Spirit of Progress" which has been produced at the Victorian Railway Workshops at Newport, is the very latest complete Express Train to be put on the rails for the Melbourne—Sydney passenger traffic.

  • Fifteenth Session, Commencing at 7.30 Pm ORDERS, DECORATIONS & MEDALS
    The Australian Flying Corps (AFC) made its fi rst operational fl ight of WWI on 27 May 1915 and by 1917 it had four operational squadrons. Now, the Fifteenth Session, Commencing at 7.30 pm training of airmen at the Central Flying School, at Point Cook was unable to keep up with demand for trained men. Accordingly, four training squadrons were established in the United Kingdom in 1917. One of these, 32 (Australian Training) Squadron, RFC was formed on 24 October 1917 at Yatesbury In January 1918 it was renamed 7 Squadron AFC and relocated to Leighterton on 23 February 1918 operating there until disbanded in March 1919. This training squadron was tasked with preparing personnel for service with 69 (Australian) Squadron, RFC and then 3 Squadron AFC, operating with ORDERS, DECORATIONS & MEDALS British Forces along the Western Front. It is at the training school that the photos above show a large number of Australian planes, all identifi ed by a kangaroo and clearly numbered on the tail. There is a particular focus on the crashes of these planes and it is here MILITARIA where this collection has a graphic insight to many of our Australian and Allied pilots who died whilst in training.
